I swear....is there an easier way to put the back cover on...it seems like its too big and not flush all around and it keeps popping up so for the love of God tell me how to get this back on before i throw it int he snow!!
Yes, You need to SLIDE the bottom tabs in first, they are NOT meant to snap in. Then you can snap the other three sides (I like to do the top and then the sides). There are no instructions that explain this, but if you look closely at the back cover you can see that is how it was designed.
And don't feel too bad. You are not the first and won't be the last to struggle with the battery cover. Even Phil had a bit of trouble in one of his early video reviews. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF1Nnj35Gy0&feature=youtu.be Fast forward to 2:20.)
